Hey callum, im after that puch SR taillight...

jjones112570 has been ejected from this topic

*** Seller refused to confirm it's from Nam. Instead he vaguely said, 100% Italian. Only a rabbit will believe him.


1965 Vespa Piaggio 150 cc super. oil gas mix. Restored. Excellent condition. No title. Runs very well.

If it's listed it's avaliable.

seller is a bit honest saying not sure where it came from.

seller lied big time. He stated it was imported from Italy. Little he knows the Nam license plate is a big give a way.

$4500 big bucks for a mix-matched vespa? don't think so.

Stop stirring the shit phOngvu

Nope. Just ranting and cursing from jjones112570. He was supporting some ads, not being bodges, as they were fixed / restored by him. He is now banned...

I saw him posting about some other bike ranting about bodge spotters etc..

Perhaps protesting a bit much.

I think it was the several personal attacks that got him banned. He was really going psycho.

No respect!

I was wondering the same thing

I'm not thinking of buying this, but wanted to see if I've spotted a bodge. The glovebox inside the leg shield is a give-away, no? And the license plate (not the black CA plate - the one on the bike), and color of the paint? It just has a look to it that suggests bodge:

You have spotted one.

be wary of any 60's super. at least they tried a wee bit more with the fake ass turn signals on this one.

for sure it is Viet bodge... the license plate was issued by VN government. You will see the initial CSGT on the top left corner.

bodged to ACMA Paris. Contacted seller. He refused to shed any history of this scooter. He firmly stated it's imported from Europe.

So, I guess, it went from Italy to Saigon back to Europe and then AZ? So sad to see these cancer scoots are for sale at such high price.

That '52 has been up on CL for months...no wonder.

... otherwise shit hits the fan and someone will get hurt...

This looks pretty bodge-y to an amateur's eye: http://scoot.net/classifieds/forsale.html?id=57536

Looks like this monstrosity is up on ebay as well.
Egads, that thing is hideous!

The turn signals! But, why?

That thing belongs in the scrap heap.

It's about as legit as the grass it's parked on.

I saw these on a FB page I follow... Wonder what colour it ended up?

FYI, this fellow is Thai. Having lived there for two years, I wouldn't be surprised if he was rebuilding it for himself. They love Vespas and they do amazing restorations. I visited a parts shop while living there and they tear down dead bikes, harvest them for parts, clean them to near new condition and sell them on the cheap. One shop I visited had piles of used parts to keep these bikes running. You see vintage bikes hauling things all over Bangkok (especially Chinatown).

Below is a photo I took and there are no bodges here.

The seller wants $6800 Canadian. Bahahaha!!!!

Totally restored Piaggio Vespa with 150 Km on it. Has been stored in-doors with all it fluids drained for the last 10 years. Original Vespa 150 Super Sport not the refurbished Korean model. Serious inquiries only. $6800. Never riden in the rain. High grade gas and top synthetic oil used for engine gas. Seats and paint totally restored. Leah.
